Getting It Together, organised and hosted by MGRS was a first-time Aboriginal community event held on the 21st of January 2016 at Bradbury Oval in Campbelltown.

The outcome of the event serves to reinforce MGRS’s strategy for early intervention and prevention of homelessness through strengthening engagement between service providers and the Aboriginal community.
